Dreams are more cruel than reality

"At this moment, I am living in reality, or in a dream." This is the thought that suddenly surged in my heart after watching "Muholland Road". After watching the film, I felt a long breath of relief, but I couldn't I immediately broke free from the film, and I was still thinking about the plot and the dreams in the film. This is a film that tests your patience, but if you have withstood such a "test", then you should feel that this is a very good work, and the weird Lynch has offered a weird movie.
Not long after the beginning of the film, I was already dizzy. A woman who looked very upscale seemed to be kidnapped. A car accident caused her to escape, but she lost her memory. But suddenly a neurotic man appears in the film nagging in the coffee shop, and then inexplicably seems to be scared to death. At this point, I have set the tone for this film in my heart. It must be a suspense film. Yes, this film is very suspenseful, such as the identity of "Rita", but the suspense of this film is too much to my appetite. , And the plot is “chaotic” enough. One is the search for the identity of "Rita", the other is the shooting in the inexplicable office, and the other is the appearance of a weird director. When I am confused, there is another homosexual love, and then The weird stage performance made me open my mouth for a long time. At this time, the most exciting plot appeared. It turned out that everything in the film was a dream. It was the dream of an unscrupulous girl named Diana with a Hollywood dream. I have seen many protagonists living in their own spiritual world. I was a little surprised at the film in which the whole film was almost immersed in dreams. Usually, watching such a movie that tortures you during your viewing process will make you very uncomfortable if there is no unexpected "popular" ending. The ending of this film makes me unable to tell the taste. It seems that "the truth is revealed" at the end. A girl had no ambitions in Hollywood. The shattered dream made her intoxicated in her dream, and her crush on an actress was even more of a same-sex crush. Let her be tortured. At the end, I don’t know whether this film is in Diana’s dream or reality. When I understand that everything is a dream, I understand the interlacing of many seemingly irrelevant plots in the film. We all have dreams. Through the experience, I have also experienced the interlaced feeling of such fragments in the dream. Thinking about it this way, Lynch's plot design is commendable.
Any film like "Mulholland Road" will attract a while of interpretation and discussion after it is released. This is also the charm of this film. It makes me a little dizzy when watching it, but I just sit tightly. Staring at the screen from the chair, there was no thought of giving up. After Diana committed suicide, when the film ended in an atmosphere of depression and sorrow, I was still sitting in a chair. Is this suicide Diana's reality or a dream? With such emotions, I keep reminiscing about this evocative film. Whenever I watch an evocative film, I will feel excited. Of course, this is after me recollecting, such as this one. The film that ended in a sad atmosphere really made me feel a little sad in the aftertaste.
What kind of story this "Mulholland Road" is going to tell, there has been too much controversy over the understanding of the film. I would rather believe that this is a very personal film, a masterpiece of multiple experiences from a personal perspective. You can say that it reveals that the evil of Hollywood ruined a beautiful girl, you can also say that it shows the pain of people living in cruel reality, you can also say that it shows the spirit in the interweaving of dreams and reality. Being confused or misplaced in identity, or simply not thinking about it like masochism, is simply experiencing the dream that Lynch brings to us, then dumbfounded, and then dumbfounded. I agree with some people's comments that this is the film that is closest to the "reality of dreams", and the interlacing of plots in the film is really like a dream. I think this is a cruel film. We often say that "drinking the sorrow, the sorrow is even more sorrowful." Then, what about the dream? After watching this film, I can only say that dreams are more cruel than reality, just like Diana in her dream as Betty to realize her dreams that cannot be realized in reality. Her interview performance was well received. She and her beloved Kami Pulling her skin into a blind date, but the cruel reality made her experience nightmarish scenes like carrion in the bed in her dreams. And when I woke up from a dream, the downfall of her reality made me feel quite worried. She didn’t even want to wake up from the dream. In a burst of almost hysterical masturbation, she hoped to return to the dream and the “goodness”. "life. For a girl like Diana, waking up from a beautiful dream is undoubtedly cruel. The more beautiful the dream, the more cruel it is, because the more beautiful, the further away from reality. Although the director did not tell us what kind of setbacks Diana experienced in life, but from the end of her dreams, from her desperate performance in the few shots in reality, I can already understand her deeply. Pain, I understand the great despair of a girl who once had a Hollywood dream Why is it so cruel, but this is indeed a real cruelty.
Everyone has a dream, and when you experience repeated setbacks in reality and your dreams are shattered, maybe you really have to chase your dreams in your dreams. The pain of shattered dreams is huge. Of course, you can say a lot of inspirational words to those who have broken dreams, but those words sometimes seem so pale, and for a lonely girl like Diana, she The only thing she faced was the involvement of dreams and reality. In the end, such involvement completely tore her heart, her heart was dead, and she finally went to physical death. We are always full of contempt for suicides. We always say, face life strong. We always vigorously promote the inspirational stories of those who have come out of trouble. In our eyes, the suicides are the cause of suicide. cowardly. Lynch cruelly revealed the cruelty of reality and dreams, allowing us to experience the painful situation of a nightmare before a person commits suicide. Perhaps we should learn to show respect to the suicide. Only you can deeply experience the suffering of the suicide. Only then can you have a deeper understanding of those who may be by your side who are alive but tortured by cruel dreams. Dreams are more cruel than reality. Their cruelty in dreams is often the cruel reaction of reality, and it is you, me, and him around her that cause such cruelty.
